Chapter 474 Influence

Amy explored him slowly, her fingers gliding down his chest, over his stomach, tracing the deep ridges of his abs. 

He was all muscle, all power, and the realization sent a shiver down her spine.

Ross didn't move, didn't rush her. He simply watched her with dark amusement, a knowing smirk playing at the corner of his lips.

Finally, she gathered the courage to meet his gaze. His eyes held a teasing glint, like he knew exactly what she was thinking, exactly what she wanted but wasn't ready to say.

"Like what you see?" he asked, his voice deep and smooth, laced with confidence.

Her heart pounded so loudly she was sure he could hear it. 

Heat pooled in her belly, and for the first time, she felt completely powerless under his gaze.

All she could do was nod.

"It's so hard. Like solid rock," Amy murmured, her voice trembling slightly as she recovered from her exploration.
